Caddo

The Caddo district in Oklahoma is home to two standout schools - Caddo Elementary School and Caddo High School. Both schools have earned 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger and consistently rank among the top schools in the state.

Caddo Elementary School is a particularly strong performer, outpacing the state average on key test score metrics like 4th grade ELA (77% proficient vs 47% state) and 5th grade Math (87% proficient vs 37% state). The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.4:1, which may contribute to its academic success. In contrast, Caddo High School has an exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of just 10:1, which likely plays a role in its impressive 80.1% 4-year graduation rate.

Both Caddo Elementary and Caddo High serve a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced lunch rates exceeding 70%. Despite this, the schools have found ways to provide a quality education and support services to their students. The significant difference in per-student spending between the two schools ($8,298 at the elementary level and $11,693 at the high school level) suggests the district may be allocating more resources to the high school, though further investigation would be needed to understand the reasons behind this disparity.
